Study of microstructures is an indispensable component of
understanding structural geology of any terrain. A number of 'new'
microscopic structures such as 'flanking microstructures',
trapezoid-shaped mineral grains, reversal of ductile shear sense,
micro-duplexes, V-pull aparts, and new minerals nucleating inside
host minerals have recently been described in individual
manuscripts. However, for the sake of brevity, microstructural
papers cannot show all possible variation in their morphology. The
proposed book aims to present these structures with attractive
colour photographs. Each photomicrograph will have a comprehensive
caption. The book also presents grain boundary migration, boudins,
symptoms of metamorphic retrogression, and how well known shear
sense indicators (S-C fabrics, mineral fish etc.) vary in
morphology in serial-sections. The target audience is for graduate
and postgraduate geosciences students and researchers of structural
geology.
